Thanksgiving Point and Lemon Sorbet!!

So this picture is a little blurry but it's still one of the few pictures we have taken lately. We have been celebrating a lot of birthdays in the Farr family which is fun because that means we get to go out to eat for free! We are at the pizza factory in this picture.


On Saturday we went to a baby animal farm at Thanksgiving point! I still haven't been feeling well and sadly am still on the partial bedrest, but I really wanted to get out...especially for Michael's sake. So we went with my family and my aunt and her kids. My mom wasn't thrilled about me walking all around the little farm since it still hurts my stomach to walk. So she got a wheel chair. I probably would have rather walked..haha. I felt a little embarrassed in the wheel chair...and I think Michael would have rather me walked too since he was the one that had to push me all around. It was still fun even though I couldn't really handle the gross smells.

Lastly, about 2 years ago I went to my aunt and uncle's house in San Francisco They had me try this lemon sorbet. It was seriously amazing. Since then I have been on the hunt to find some here in Utah. Well I have had no luck. I even searched in Washington hoping to find some. Well, last night my dad brought home a surprise dessert. Well guess what that surprise dessert was? LEMON SORBET! Haha. He has known where to get some all along. I am so excited about this. Apparently it is $9 bucks a quart but it is definitely worth every penny!

A little unexpected scare:

We had our second doctor's appointment yesterday. We were just expecting a visit with the doctor and being able to listen to our baby's heartbeat. Well, things didn't go quite as planned. For the past weeks I have had some problems with bleeding and had gone in last week to hear the heartbeat just to make sure the baby was okay. Luckily they found the heartbeat and everything was fine! Well today the doctor told me that he just wanted to do an ultrasound and make sure everything was okay and kind of get an idea of how much bleeding there is. Well obviously they found our little one as healthy as can be...a little bigger than normal. (Maybe I have an earlier due date!) However if you look at the picture you will see a little blob of something in the bottom right corner. Well that is known as a subchorionic hemmorrhage. This is fairly common in pregnant women. About one in four women will bleed during pregnancy. However, when they measured the length of my hemmorrhage there was a little more bleeding than normal. So because of this I have to go on pelvic bed rest for at least the next 2 weeks. After which, I will get another ultrasound to see if the hemmorrhage has gone down. Luckily pelvic bed rest won't require me to be flat on my back. I don't think I could handle that. But I am not allowed to participate in any form of exercise and pretty much just have to take it really easy. Although I love our baby so much I would do anything to make sure everything is okay. This has been a little bit of a scare for us especially because this is our first one and we have no idea what to expect. But we feel like everything is going to be fine. We will keep you updated on everything!

Random:

You would think that the further along I get with this baby the better I would feel right?
Wrong....Just in the past 2 days I have thrown up more than I did in my first 9 weeks. Not fun.
I probably would have thrown up a lot more if I wasn't so stubborn about trying to fight it.
I hesitate sharing this, but since this blog is mostly for me to look back and remember things I will. Showering has become particularly difficult for me. I am lucky my boy can't smell:) Before you get all grossed out I will tell you why. First of all...by the time we get home from work and school I have zero energy to stand up in the shower for 10 minutes so I usually don't. Second of all... I can't shower in the mornings because Michael leaves way before me and there is no way I am getting in the shower when he is gone. I know I have issues but I am just too scared to do it. I haven't been able to pinpoint exactly what it is that scares me so much. I think it is either a man with an ax or a clown. Anyway, I have decided that I want to be a cute pregnant girl and in order to do that I am going to need to shower a little more often. (Not every 4 days.)

Michael is done with school...well except his finals! Good luck to him! We have a double date planned for Saturday night that I am excited for...if I am feeling good. And then on Sunday one of my best friends will be giving her farewell talk. I can't believe that I am old enough to go on a mission. Well not quite but still I am close and it kind of freaks me out. I don't really want to get old.

My camera is still broken and Michael's is just weird. That is why I have no pictures to post. Besides showering daily getting a working camera is my top priority.
